At Lebanon County
BY LOU ANN GOOD

through the Lebanon County Dairy
Princess program. Crowned dairy

committed to making dairy farm

brothers.
Kynel, the daughter of John and
Margaret Bomgardner, in reality
has six brothers who help milk 63
head of registered Holsteins at the
family farm in Ono.
The newly crowned dairy prin
cess admitted that several years
ago she had gone through a stage
of resenting farm chores that pre
vented her from participating in
school activities. She recalled,
“My dad explained that life is full
of choices and we can’t do every
thing.” After contemplating on the
pros and cons of fanjn life, Kynel
was convinced that farming should
be a priority in her life. Today, she
hopes to always remain on the
farm and is actively pursuing
increasing her own 11-head herd.
Despite daily milking chores,
Kynel graduated magna cum laude
and participated in the following
school activities: track team, band,
junior and senior class plays, pit
orchestra, and student govern
ment. She was designated student
of the month and is listed in Who’s
